sandra-crookThanks to Rochelle for hosting, and to Sandra Crook for her photo of Corfe Castle.

I visited Corfe Castle last September, it’s amazing. I posted quite a few photos on my blog and they are HERE if you’d like to see them!

Touch King Froggie’s castle to join in the fun (one never lays one’s hand upon a regal personage!)

      He’s probably aiming a bit high!

      I think it’s actually parked – a sight that’s fairly common here.

        Interesting! And pedestrians walk on the road?
        W-P is being difficult: these days I have to log in every time I leave a like or comment on your blog. 😦

        Unfortunately so, especially if they have baby buggies or mobility scooters.

        Sorry about that, I have no idea why! Thanks though for persevering Christine.

    It’s a great plan. Specially about not eating sprouts. 😂

    Love it, very entertaining…but I think it’s time for bed, as everything I read is making me laugh like a silly goose! Have a great day!

    I know Corfe Castle well. Slid down the grassy hills on my butt as a kid and Mum never got the stains out. Happy days.

    The list goes on, drive a steam train, fly like a bird. I do hope that Mille has lots of cash.

    Dear Keith,

    I love his outlook. Adorable story. Having had three little boys myself, I can see this one with a foil crown on his head and a bath towel for a cape. Delightful

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

    Every great plan gets interrupted by dinner time. Perhaps, after pudding he could continue the master plan and land on the moon. Besides, I saw Millie first.

    An adorable story, Keith! I’m with him on the no sprouts bit. Who knows, our dreams can come true in one way or another.

    This is cute! I like how it is presented and so bang on. I think this is how kids still talk, I hope so anyway. Nicely done. ps Sprouts re yum with the right sauce! 😉
